sidekick CH 7 through 12

CH 7 the fight goes badly and chuck jumps in time save them.

CH 8 pg 76
The three former side kicks go to a bar and get drunk.  Lots of solid drunken complaints about the good ole days.  Then they see the news.  A bad guy calling himself beef chief is at the central bank doing bad things.  Like mass murder.  Sam decides they gotta do some thing to they go back to Chuck who's like "so you heard about beef chief"

CH 9 pg 89
Chuck asks if they're really ready.  The sidekicks say yes, Anna says "-ish"  they go down a long elevator.  The sidekick initiative is a little underwhelming.  The room they arrive in is just full of old boxes.  Chuck explains this is because they didn't want to heat the whole complex so they pulled everything into this one room.  They meet a robot named Mari.  This is extra amusing because earlier when Chuck talks about his partner Randy asks if they're sexual partners and kinda makes a big deal out of it.  Super funny that chuck isn't having sex with a robot.  Its time to get to training.  They're all drunk so this is gonna suck.

CH 10 page 99
If this was a movie this would be the world's lamest training Montague.  The highlight is randy falling off his treadmill cause he turned it up too fast.  Then they take him to the medical room and his body is covered in scars from the years of crime fighting.

CH 11 page 110
Sam calls to check up on Corey.  He's fine, Brian still sucks.  Sam sleeps in his room that has bunk beds and a sink.  The next day Chuck reminds them how much they suck.  Sam agrees, Randy does not.  Chuck says they're bringing in a coach to help.  Turns out its an old bad guy that used to go by captain Nazi.  That's not ideal, but he claims his villainy was all due to Nazi brain washing and he's been unbrainwashed and is a good guy now.  Sam especially hates this because kaptain Nazi used to be doctor mighty's main nemesis and so there's that.  This whole situation is really horrible.

CH 12 page 125

They're doing this tennis ball run down a hallway thing and it goes badly.  There's a moment where Sam has this twinkling at the back of his mind that he could use his power.  He shakes it off and gets hit by a bunch of tennis balls and falls down.  Then the three of them try to fight captain Nazi.  It goes badly.  Again Sam has a moment where there's like a devil on Sam's shoulder telling him to let loose and use his power "it's too dangerous.  And yet..."  Nothing comes of it.  Then there's bickering about whether or not Sam and Randy even have powers.  Chuck begrudgingly shows them the super suits.  They're pretty super.  They want to try them out, chuck says its time to break for.lunch.
